Precise climate control and automation – from home grow to industrial applications
GrowControl develops control and regulation systems for the precise management of climate and environmental parameters.
Our systems cover a wide range of applications – from compact setups to industrial-scale installations with high requirements for stability, scalability, and automation.
Automation for Greenhouses
Not every facility needs to be planned from scratch.
In many cases, it makes more sense to modernize specific areas — such as irrigation, water systems, alerts, remote access or monitoring.
GrowControl develops modular solutions for existing systems, retrofits and technically demanding horticultural projects.
Irrigation & Water Systems
Control of pumps, valves, dosing and irrigation zones.
From simple time- or light-based strategies to sensor-supported precision irrigation.
Remote Access & Alerts
Detect faults early, track system states and check systems remotely when needed.
For greater transparency and faster response during ongoing operation.
Energy & Resource Monitoring
Make consumption, runtimes and technical irregularities visible.
As a basis for optimization, modernization and more efficient system operation.
Retrofitting Instead of Full Replacement
Retrofit-capable control cabinets and partial automation for water systems, pump groups, dosing stations and other subsystems.
Leaf Temperature Sensor IRCube
IRCube is our new infrared leaf temperature sensor for GrowBase Pro.
The leaf temperature is used in addition to the humidity to calculate and control VPD. VPD has a great influence on the metabolism of your plants!
With the included mounting arm you can easily attach it to tent poles or grow racks.
VPD Control
VPD stands for Vapour Pressure Deficit.This value is calculated from the leaf temperature and humidity. For an optimal metabolism of the plant, VPD has an even greater influence than temperature or humidity per se.
With GrowBase Pro the vapor pressure deficit can be controlled automatically.
To determine the leaf temperature, our leaf temperature sensor IRCube can be used, or a difference to the room temperature can be entered.
Learn more about VPD in our FAQ or our Blog.
The VPD Master Guide is available via the Blog-Post Understanding VPD .
CO₂ Control
When all factors (climate, lighting, nutrients, etc.) are optimal for the plants, the factor that limits an increase in the photosynthesis rate is the CO₂ content of the air.
GrowBase and GrowBase Pro can control the CO₂ content of the room air and thus achieve a significant increase in yield.
Inrush Current Limitation
LED luminaires in particular, but also gas discharge lamps such as NDL, have an inrush current that is many times higher than the current during operation. This usually severely limits the number of LED lights that can be connected to a domestic circuit breaker.
GrowBase Pro's 4th socket has an inrush current limiter and also a 2-pole switch-off. This allows LED lights with a total power of up to 2300W to be powered from a single socket.
